New Phone Guidance

Interested now. If you leave the original OEM bootloader in place, and have the correct version of radio firmware, and ROM image to hand, how precisely can they tell if I have reloaded a homebrew ROM and new radio firmware on? Have never had problems with either iMate nor the MK place with any form of hardware fault, both leaving the WM6 image on, or returning it to OEM WM5...

HTC are different from iMate, even if most iMate's are manufactured by HTC, or very closely related.

You may get away with a dodgy rom, but chances are you won't, and get stung by a hefty bill. I'm not telling anyone what to do or not to do, I'm merely pointing out the two sides of the coin. And HTC can be quite quirky to deal with at times.

OK, I had a chance to play with the N95 the other day and its rather nice.

However nobody seems to have the tytn in stock on the high street. Will I look like a total idiot (or rather more of an idiot)if I use one as a normal phone due to its (presumably massive) size.
